My first paper was published online last week 🤗🐗
It argues for geographic engagement with language(s) as embodied & embedded relation (rather than just representation), as a move against colonial and territorial language geographies.
And it's here!

There are many fronts in the antifascist struggle and that means different tactics.

An open letter to the RGS about its decision not to host a PalFest event during Israel's War on Gaza . The piece reflects on the responsibility and histories of our academic societies and the silencing of Palestinian voices. https://t.co/02zQxXM28X

[Chloé Benoist @chloejbenoist]

This is the most personal piece I've ever written, at a time when bearing witness feels simultaneously small and essential.

A thousand thanks to Lina @warghetti (& many others) for encouraging me to put my thoughts and memories into words.

"In thirty years, when I teach my students about the Genocide of Gaza without the tired orientalist tropes of primordial sectarian hate, will I have to teach them first that the structure of this world is apathy?"

[Mark Krotov @markkrotov]

"How selfish to make it about us. But also, how cruel and deceptive that this country has made it about us, has made us debate taskforces while Gaza is reduced to rubble." https://t.co/rANPhdBL71

Phenomenal #SchoolStrikeForPalestine in Glasgow today! #CeasefireNOW #FreePalestine 🇵🇸

[Gargi Bhattacharyya @Gargi_at_home]

Please please contact your MP before Wednesday. Don't let them pretend their constituents are indifferent to genocide. You can just write 'please support an immediate ceasefire'.

“The IDF targeted another one of her neighbors, and that house was also damaged. A young boy, Muhammad, one year old, was killed. This was the first time in my life I stood in front of someone who I care about, speechless.” https://t.co/Ikt4YqmTxo
